Genre

Genre as a marketing category!
Publishers and editors do not think about genre the same way authors do. Here's an explanation.



... Now I write an ode to spinach:
spinach,
you
are green
and
i wish i had more
of you than
what I ate
(yum yum yum)
at five in the morning,
dawn
creeping
up
you are
(my sunshine and)
the perfect delivery method
for salt and
garlic.

You're much more entertaining to read than Miss Snark, painkillers, spinach and time of day or such things not affecting your posts. *g*

So when is The Robot Cheerleader Wars by Samantha Carter coming out?

Hey. No dissing Miss Snark in my comments. I find her extremely entertaining, and I find myself bordering on tedious. *g* And yet we are in the same genre! Oh, the woe of the industry.


*steadfastly ignores your question about Samantha Carter*

No, I wasn't dissing! Just saying I prefer your comments. LOL

*stubbornly wants to know when this story is hitting the shelves*

Merry SPD to you. Hope you can find some green vegetarian beer! *g*

Well, okay. As long as there is much Snark Respect. :)

Totally respecting the snark here. (After all, I live with four males--I'm all about the snark. *g*)
